Being a weatherman is hard. First there’s that coordination of pointing at places on the green screen while staring at the camera that you have to master. Then there’s the sorry business of letting people know that their weekend plans are going to be ruined by rain. Finally there are those moments when you have to pronounce the name of a Welsh town.

Watch, then, as the astoundingly professional Liam Dutton says “Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch” as casually as if it were his go-to coffee order. 

Sounds like someone’s been practicing.
